Community Engagement

It takes the whole community to ensure every child is safe, healthy and educated.  The Larry King Center engages the community in our mission through a variety of means:

Public Awareness

The Larry King Center strives to increase awareness on issues vital to a child’s success.  Look for our upcoming public awareness campaign regarding the importance of school readiness.

Media Work

Through our work with traditional and social media, we work to make sure the most pressing issues facing children remain at the forefront of our community.  To see recent media stories click here. For media inquiries, click here.

Community-Engaged Planning Efforts

LKC’s community planning efforts are designed to engage the wider-community in the planning process.  Read the LKC School Readiness Plan Executive Summary, which is the most recent plan.

Community Dialogue

We bring vital information and conversation to our community in order to improve and expand efforts to develop safe, healthy and educated children.

Engaging Leaders to Advocate for Children

We are always recruiting members of our community who are willing to stand up for children’s rights.  You can contact anyone from the Larry King Center to find out more about the work or how you can get involved!
